| Abstract | Epidermal cell-derived factors (EDF), present in extracts and supernatant fluids of cultured epidermal cells, were found to stimulate the proliferation of keratinocytes but to inhibit fibroblasts. In vitro, the effect of EDF on epidermal cells resulted in an increased number of rapidly proliferating colonies composed mainly of basal keratinocytes. Control cultures grown in the absence of EDF had a high proportion of terminally differentiated cells. In fibroblast cultures EDF inhibited the ability of fibroblasts to cause contraction of collagen sponges by 90%. Epidermal growth factor, basic fibroblast growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, transforming growth factor beta, nerve growth factor, and extracts of WI-38 cells (human embryonic lung fibroblasts) did not have this inhibitory activity. Application of EDF to surgical wounds stimulated extensive migration and proliferation of keratinocytes from remnants of glands, hair follicles, and wound edges. The restoration of complete epidermal coverage of wounds treated with EDF occurred twice as rapidly as that of control wounds. In addition, regenerating dermis in the EDF-treated wounds contained 1/5th to 1/15th as many cells as wounds treated with epidermal growth factor, urogastrone, transforming growth factor, or phosphate-buffered saline. The use of EDF to enhance re-epithelization and to prevent scar formation is proposed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
